Super Strength Positive Thinking Made Easy/Instant Mood Brightener
Published in Audio Cassette by Effective Learning Systems (November, 1993)
Authors: Bob Griswold and Robert Griswold
Average review score:

Revelations on Tape
A great choice (especially for the price) if you're looking for optimism. I would listen to "Super Strength Positive Thinking" in my car for the long commute to school every day so that I would have positive goals throughout the day. It gives you neat little mental tricks to try throughout the day. By listening to small sections of the book at a time, you'll have a leg up on the day to start off or end the day on a positive and super-productive advantage. It's easy to listen to and the authors use funny anecdotes to give examples of how their suggestions work. And they do work!

Published in Hardcover by Houghton Mifflin Co (15 May, 1999)
Author: Mac Griswold
Average review score:

Beatiful and fascinating
This lovely book, full beatiful photographs is a must for any one interested in American history and garden history in general. In fact it gives us Americans a garden history (slavery excluded) to be as proud of as the British are of theirs.
Lots of well researched interesting facts, useful advice, historical insight and pretty pictures make this book thoroughly enjoyable and I recomend it highly.

Heaven & Beyond: Conversations With Souls in Transition
Published in Hardcover by Adams Media Corporation (April, 2001)
Authors: Barbara Mark and Trudy Griswold
Average review score:

Comfort and Wisdom from Loved Ones
This is an interesting little book that brings to light that our loved ones are not as far away as we sometimes believe. I have read the other books by Barbara and Trudy, and have been successful with their techniques.

This book uses the same techniques that the authors have outlined in the past to contact your angels or spirit guides, but this time teaches how to contact those we love in spirit. Included in the book, are also many personal stories of contact. I tried the techniques right after I read the book, and was able to contact 5 people that were very meaningful in my life. It was interesting because there was a distinct "voice" to each one. Still skeptical, but armed with my written pages of contact, I had a meeting with a Medium the next day. Sure enough, she brought through a few of the people that I had contacted, gave me the same messages that I had received myself, and even used the same language and nicknames that I had received in the contact. That was enough confirmation for me!

This book is also a wonderful gift to give to someone that is in the process of grieving. It is uplifting and gives a way for the grieving to reach out and find some peace. This book combined with a lovely journal would make a great gift.

Heaven & Beyond : Conversations With Souls in Transition
Although this is a very wonderful book, I feel I have to let you know that the information in this book were edited to the point that some of the TRUE stories are not so accurate. I was very disappointed because one of the stories was my mother's own story about my contact with the other side. It was changed enough that I almost didn't recognize that it was her story. We do have the ability to contact those that have crossed over to the next life, but, I am very sorry for the inaccuracy of the information given in this book due to unnecessary editing. God Bless.

God bless the Angels of Hospice
Heaven and Beyond is a lovely book of insightful information to help all of us as we go through illness, our own or a loved ones, and our natural transitions from this earthly realm to a higher, more beautiful realm in Heaven. So many families go through the caregiving phase doing the best they know how to do and sometimes with no help in sight. Realizing that help is available everywhere if we just ask for it, is many times the hardest thing to see. Sometimes the caregiver does not realize how much better the quality of care would be with a little time out to restore their energy to themselves that such a close relationship requires... because the very word caregiver tells us that this is a close loving relationship and the caregiver role is very complicated in it that so many emotions, thoughts , memories and hopes and desires for the present as well as the future are present, and also incorporated into this situation is all of the daily stuff one must also try to accomplish... and attention to all of the other family members as well...so our plate is full and we really want to do this and now we must step aside and let our hearts see what is best for our loved ones and when we realize that death is not the end and truly a new beginning we can let compassion fill our hearts and let our loved ones go if that is their wish...only out of our sight but still connected to us in all ways...always because God has told us so...because He loves us. The caregiver definitely needs time to recover the energy that is sent to their loved one and this is the time to learn about Hospice Care. Hospice care is devoted to letting the normal stages of our transition take place but with attention to the dying loved ones needs. This is truly a very difficult time because by the time we get to this stage we desperately need help because all of our resources of energy and coping skills are gone. It is hard for us to think that our loved one will soon be out of our sight but they are only gone from their earthly existence to their eternal spiritual existence which is forever. So by leading with compassion and understanding and the training that the special Hospice nurses bring our loved ones don't have to suffer one more moment and this is the gift of love from all of the special Angels...the Hospice nurses...we love you all! This message to Barbara and Trudy is a beautiful message to share with us that we are never alone...ever...and even though it may seem so at times all help surrounds us...for Gods lovely Angels are always here and all we have to do is ask! Blessings of Gods love and light and all the Angels embrace the messages shared in this book. Believing it will make it so. How things are brought into our awareness are really not so surprising if we remember that we are always connected to God through His lovely Angels of Light and that when we on earth are ready to step up to another level of understanding all pathways will open for His love to arrive. Accepting this love is easy to do then acknowledge He who sent it and do your part to share this message so that all hearts will be healed by this love...and all the stars in Heaven danced and Heaven and Beyond is just the first step up to our new level of understanding that will connect all there is forever in Love. A very Special thank you to the Hospice nurses that helped us so gently through my Mother's transition to Heaven...my heart to yours! Love, Linda


An Introduction to the Study of the Maya Hieroglyphs
Published in Paperback by Dover Pubns (February, 1975)
Authors: Sylvanus Griswold Morley and Eric S. Thompson
Average review score:

Still worth having.
Of course this was written before the Knorosov and Prouskouriakoff decipherments but it's very nicely illustrated and has clear explanations of the numbers and calendar, which are as far as most of us are likely to get. The first chapter is way out of date. It's based on Diego de Landa and Chilem Balaaam and they've found out a lot more stuff since then. (It seems strange to talk of history going out of date.) The price is right.

The definitive beginner's book, and at a bargain price, too
If you're interested in the fascinating and complex world of Maya hieroglyphs and calendrics, and searching for a book that provides an easily understandable introduction into this rather complicated realm, then look no further. Despite being over 80 years old, Morley's book is still the perfect beginner's playfield, combining logical structure, extremely detailed explanations and lots of examples to create a highly readable volume that's both scientifically brilliant and understandable for everyone at the same time. It is of course not a complete reference guide, having been written long before the recent decipherments of Maya writing and before all the calendric glyphs were known, with the short historical section being badly dated - but that's secondary. It wants to help readers with their first steps into its subject matter, the Maya calendar glyphs, and that it does with commendable ease and clarity. This book was the principal starting point of many a major player in the field of epigraphy, and this it could well remain for the next generation of researchers and armchair-archaeologists alike. To buy or not to buy? No question here.

very detailed
This book is a very detailed explanation of the mayan calender and associated hieroglyphic symbols. I liked this book but was writted before the deciferment of the mayan written language.

Noticing a difference already
I've been listening to this tape for about a week so far and I've noticed a difference in my anger control already. My friends and family have noticed, too.

Awesome!
Robert Griswold and all the Love tapes from Effective Learning Systems (I have over 10) are great. I have used a few different tapes by others and none of them even come close to comparing!


Corporate Intranet Development
Published in Paperback by Prima Publishing (January, 1997)
Author: Steve Griswold
Average review score:

Very much entry-level
This book would be good for someone with almost no knowledge of web development. However it is too basic for most webmasters. I was hoping for more strategic information, rather than a primer on HTML.

Interesting book for building an intranet
This is the best book that i have reader. I'm building an Intranet with the help of this book.Each chapter is very good.

Fantastic Book!
I was assigned to setup an intranet for our retail outlet stores and "Corporate Intranet Development" got me off and running in no time. It was easy to read and had all the latest information I needed. The book would be perfect for large corporations, but also fit my needs for the retail market perfectly


Welcome to the Episcopal Church: An Introduction to Its History, Faith, and Worship
Published in Paperback by Morehouse Publishing (December, 1999)
Authors: Christopher L. Webber and Frank T., III Griswold
Average review score:

Interesting but reads like textbook
Very informative!! Main complaint is that it reads like a textbook. If the book is a "welcome", it should have more spark. However, information within the book is well organized and presented . Having become a member of the Episcopal Church some 30 years ago as a teenager I found the book very interesting and informative. Would recommend it to both church members and non-church members.

A faith for yesterday, today and tomorrow.
Having attended the Episcopal church since they welcomed my little brother in the 1970's I can tell you this is a wonderful book and is both grounded in tradition and thought provoking innovation. I am amazed by the reaction of both conservatives in the Bible belt and elsewhere as well as liberal readers outside of the church who have clearly been misinformed about our faith. While we see openess, tolerance and diversity as key to our future, we also proclaim our traditional beliefs. We sing the Creed which outlines our belief in Christ's Birth to the Virgin Mary, his death, glorious rise and ascension to heaven. People should actually try reading this wonderful volume by the Bishop who will lead us into the future, while continuing to embrace our tradition and beliefs. We have a wonderful family made up of conservatives and liberals, Anglo-Catholics and Evangelical Protestants, Ultra-High Church people and snake belly Low Church people. This book stands as witness to the work of that family.

Excellent for the new comer to the Episcopal Church
As a person who is new to the Episcopal Church, I found this book invaluable in explaining customs, practices and beliefs. It is a great resource and a wonderful starting place for someone who is new to the church and has a hunger to learn and grow in it. A must have!
